Yangshuo , China

It was raining lightly when I  61     (arrive) in Yangshuo just before dawn. But I didn’t care. A few hours  62    , I’d been at home in Hong Kong, with  63      (it) choking smog（烟雾）. Here, the air was clean and fresh, even with the rain.

I’d skipped nearby Guilin, a dream place for tourists seeking the limestone mountain tops and dark waters of the Li River  64        are pictured by artists in so many Chinese  65      

(painting). Instead, I’d headed straight for Yangshuo. For those who fly to Guilin, it’s only an hour away   66       car and offers all the scenery of the better-known city.

To whom it may concern,

I’ve learned that an art exhibition is to be held and that you’re collecting  61   (suggest) on its location. I’m writing this letter to share with you   62   opinions.

In my opinion, it is   63   (advisable) to hold the art exhibition in Shanghai Museum than in community libraries. My reasons are as follows:

On one hand, it is more convenient for people to get to Shanghai Museum which  64   （be）in the center of the city. And the museum is much more spacious than community libraries,   65   provides visitors with a more comfortable environment for   66   (appreciate) art.

On the  67  hand, as a well-known museum, Shanghai Museum is more   68   (profession) and experienced in holding art exhibitions. Its professional security guards and advanced facilities can better protect those famous paintings   69   being damaged or stolen.

Therefore, I suggest the exhibition   70   (hold) in the museum.

Yours sincerely,                                                              Wang Min
